Day one of the Cheltenham Festival is headlined by the Champion Hurdle, a historic two-mile Grade One that has been won by many of National Hunt racing's greats. In 2021, Henry De Bromhead celebrated his first Champion Hurdle victory, as unbeaten mare Honeysuckle justified favouritism with a superb display.
Here's an early look at the 2022 Champion Hurdle betting.

Honeysuckle returned to action this season with an easy victory in the Hatton's Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse. Henry De Bromhead's mare will head to the Irish Champion Hurdle again before returning to Cheltenham, and Paddy Power already make Honeysuckle an overwhelming favourite to win her second Champion Hurdle.
An autumn setback means Appreciate It will likely remain over hurdles this season, and Willie Mullins' Supreme winner sits second behind Honeysuckle in the market. Sharjah has jumped up to 8/1 in the betting after wins in the Morgiana Hurdle and a fourth-straight victory in the Matheson Hurdle at Leopardstown.
Epatante has also bounced back to her best this season, dead-heating with Not So Sleepy in the Fighting Fifth before an excellent win in the Christmas Hurdle. The 2020 Champion Hurdle is the best-placed of the British entrants in the Cheltenham Festival betting, having been cut into 10/1 in recent weeks.
Two four-year-olds, Zanahiyr and Teahupoo can be found at 14/1 in the current ante-post betting. Adagio, Quilixios, Saint Roi and Saint Felicien can all be found at 33/1.
